92-585: A punitive expedition of Cossacks and gendarmes led by the vice-governor of the governorate in Samara. After the decree of Tsar Nicholas II on religious tolerance the Old Believers were forced to pay taxes in favour to the Orthodox Church that they believed to be heretical. The then Ministry of Interior forbade Samara's public officials to prosecute in this practice, which was contrary to
138-419: A border territory. At the end of 2012, there are protected areas of the following categories in the Samara region: state nature reserve, national parks , biosphere reserves, protected areas of regional importance, botanical gardens , therapeutic areas. At the moment, a unique network of various protected natural areas has been formed in the Samara region. It is based on protected areas of federal significance:
184-501: A distance of about 3,000 kilometers, reaching as far as the Baltic Sea . This technological spread was much faster than the spread of agriculture itself, and mainly occurred through technology transfer between hunter-gatherer groups, rather than through the demic diffusion of agriculturalists.

230-478: A large number of skeletons of prehistoric Eastern Europe. Thirty-seven samples were from Mesolithic and Neolithic Ukraine (9500-6000 BC). These were classified as intermediate between EHG and SHG. The males belonged exclusively to R haplotypes (particularly subclades of R1b1 and R1a ) and I haplotypes (particularly subclades of I2 ). Mitochondrial DNA belonged almost exclusively to U (particularly subclades of U5 and U4 ). A large number of individuals from
276-554: A new ancestral component, West Siberian Hunter-Gatherer (WSHG). WSHGs contained about 20% EHG ancestry, 73% ANE ancestry, and 6% East Asian ancestry. The EHG have been argued by some to represent a possible source for the Pre-Proto-Indo-European language (see also Father Tongue hypothesis ). Unlike the Yamnaya culture people (or closely related groups), which are associated with speakers of Proto-Indo-European,
322-527: A rebellion took place in November that year at the village of Novaya Tsarevshchina (now Volzhsky) and spread to the village of Stary Buyan, leading to the formation of the short-lived separatist state, the Stary Buyan Republic , within the governorate. There was little local opposition to the new state, and after the failure of local police to end the rebellion, it was successfully suppressed by
368-465: A sample of Y-DNA extracted from a Pit–Comb Ware individual. This belonged to R1a15-YP172 . The four samples of mtDNA extracted constituted two samples of U5b1d1 , one sample of U5a2d , and one sample of U4a . Günther et al. (2018) analyzed 13 SHGs and found all of them to be of EHG ancestry. Generally, SHGs from western and northern Scandinavia had more EHG ancestry (ca 49%) than individuals from eastern Scandinavia (ca. 38%). The authors suggested that
414-458: Is a distinct ancestral component that represents Mesolithic hunter-gatherers of Eastern Europe . The eastern hunter-gatherer genetic profile is mainly derived from Ancient North Eurasian (ANE) ancestry, which was introduced from Siberia , with a secondary and smaller admixture of European western hunter-gatherers (WHG). However, the relationship between the ANE and EHG ancestral components
460-675: Is by far the main component of the Yuzhny Oleny group, and is among the highest within the rest of the Eastern Hunter-Gatherers (EHG). As hunter-gatherers, the EHGs initially relied on stone tools and artifacts derived from ivory, horns or antlers. From circa 5,900 BC, they started to adopt pottery in the area of the northern Caspian Sea , or possibly from beyond the Ural. In barely three or four centuries, pottery spread over
506-655: Is not yet well understood due to lack of samples that could bridge the spatiotemporal gap. During the Mesolithic, the EHGs inhabited an area stretching from the Baltic Sea to the Urals and downwards to the Pontic–Caspian steppe . Along with Scandinavian hunter-gatherers (SHG) and western hunter-gatherers (WHG), the EHGs constituted one of the three main genetic groups in the postglacial period of early Holocene Europe. The border between WHGs and EHGs ran roughly from

690-539: The Dnieper Rapids for a period of 4,000 years. The Ukrainian samples belonged exclusively to the maternal haplogroup U , which is found in around 80% of all European hunter-gatherer samples. The people of the Pit–Comb Ware culture (PCW/CCC) of the eastern Baltic bear 65% EHG ancestry. This is in contrast to earlier hunter-gatherers in the area, who were more closely related to WHG. This was demonstrated using
736-790: The Indo-European languages were initially spoken by EHGs living in Eastern Europe. Others have suggested that the Indo-European language family may have originated not in Eastern Europe, but among CHG-rich West Asian populations South of the Caucasus which later absorbed EHG-rich groups North of the Caucasus. It was noted that haplogroups may not correlate with autosomal ancestry components and historical language dispersals. The EHGs are suggested to have had mostly brown eyes and light skin, with "intermediate frequencies of
782-641: The Iron Gates Mesolithic in the Balkans were estimated to be of 85% WHG and 15% EHG descent. The males at these sites carried exclusively R1b1a and I (mostly subclades of I2a ) haplotypes. mtDNA belonged mostly to U (particularly subclades of U5 and U4 ). People of the Cucuteni–Trypillia culture were found to harbor about 20% hunter-gatherer ancestry, which was intermediate between EHG and WHG. Narasimshan et al. (2019) coined
828-786: The KITLG gene that controls melanocyte development and melanin synthesis, which is associated with blond hair and first found in an individual from Siberia dated to around 17,000 BP, is found in three Eastern Hunter-Gatherers from Samara, Motala and Ukraine c. 10,000 BP , suggesting that this allele originated in the Ancient North Eurasian population, before spreading to western Eurasia. Many remains of East Hunter-Gatherers dated to circa 8,100 BP (6,100 BCE) have also been excavated at Yuzhny Oleny island in Lake Onega . The Ancient North Eurasian (ANE) ancestry
874-592: The Zvejnieki burial ground , which mostly belonged to the Kunda culture and Narva culture in the eastern Baltic, were analyzed. These individuals were mostly of WHG descent in the earlier phases, but over time EHG ancestry became predominant. The Y-DNA of this site belonged almost exclusively to haplotypes of haplogroup R1b1a1a and I2a1 . The mtDNA belonged exclusively to haplogroup U (particularly subclades of U2 , U4 and U5 ). Forty individuals from three sites of

In addition, 30% of
966-577: The ANE lineage (represented by Malta and Afontova Gora 3), which later substantially contributed to the formation of the EHG. The formation of the EHG ancestral component is estimated to have happened 13,000–15,000 years BP. EHG associated remains belonged primarily to the human Y-chromosome haplogroups R1 , with a lower frequency of haplogroup J and Q . Their mitochondrial chromosomes belonged primarily to haplogroup U2 , U4 , U5 , as well as C1 and R1b . Geneflow from an East Asian-like source towards

On 1 August 1997 Samara Oblast signed a power-sharing agreement with the federal government, granting it autonomy. This agreement would be abolished on 22 February 2002. Tolyatti
1058-543: The EHG contributed around 9.4% (4.4%–14.7%). EHGs may have mixed with "an Armenian-like Near Eastern source", which formed the Yamnaya culture, as early as the Eneolithic (5200-4000 BC). The people of the Yamnaya culture were found to be a mix of EHG and a "Near Eastern related population". During the 3rd millennium BC, the Yamnaya people embarked on a massive expansion throughout Europe , which significantly altered
1104-521: The EHG-rich Dnieper–Donets culture people show no evidence of Caucasus Hunter-Gatherer (CHG) or Early European Farmer (EEF) ancestry. Both Dnieper-Donets males and Yamnaya males carry the same paternal haplogroups (R1b and I2a), suggesting that the CHG and EEF admixture among the Yamnaya came through EHG males mixing with EEF and CHG females. Based on this, David W. Anthony , this suggests that

On January 25, 1991 by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, the Kuibyshev Oblast was renamed the Samara Oblast. On April 21, 1992,
1242-458: The Pit–Comb Ware culture was more closely related to EHG. Northern and eastern areas of the eastern Baltic were found to be more closely related to EHG than southern areas. The study noted that EHGs, like SHGs and Baltic hunter-gatherers, carried high frequencies of the derived alleles for SLC24A5 and SLC45A2, which are codings for light skin . Mathieson et al. (2018) analyzed the genetics of
1288-544: The SHGs were a mix of WHGs who had migrated into Scandinavia from the south, and EHGs who had later migrated into Scandinavia from the northeast along the Norwegian coast. SHGs displayed higher frequences of genetic variants that cause light skin ( SLC45A2 and SLC24A5 ), and light eyes ( OCA/Herc2 ), than WHGs and EHGs. Members of the Kunda culture and Narva culture were also found to be more closely related with WHG, while
